if I said I’d been waiting, it would be a lie
She can smell him ten miles away. His scent reminds her of youth and innocence and flirtatious nights listening to jazz.
She flies to her room and slips into her white dress, the one of eyelet lace, the one he never told her but she knows is his favorite. She smoothes her curls. The doorbell rings. (and she thinks to herself, maybe, maybe this time...)
She dances down the stairs and throws open the door. She’s got his smile on her face, the sweet, fallen-angel one, the one he never told her but she knows he likes so much.
“Edward!” she gasps like she’s surprised, and then it is surprise.
There, tucked under his arm, all pale white skin and unsatiated hunger and blood red eyes, is a newborn vampire.
“Tanya,” is all he says, but she can hear so much more.
